Llanu shrugs, but looks cautiously at the two. "I do not know yet, ma Olo'eyktan. They could be good, but they could be bad as well." she says.

"I dont know why, but I have a terrible feeling about this," Tsteu Nantang says, "ma Llanu, could you keep an eye on them for me? Please just tell me if they do anything odd."

Llanu nods respectively. "Srane, ma Tsteu Nantang." She says as he walks away.

Tsteu Nantang walks up to the hammocks and falls asleep.

Brian wakes up from the small coma he had been in and joins Alice in a meal. Its teylu after eating for a bit he tyrns to Alice and asks, "This is really good, what is it?"

After a while Tsteu Nantang realizes that Mineya has been gone for sometime and goes to help her.

Ninat laughs as he is eating beetle larvae. "The skxawng will spit it out when he finds out what it is!" she whispers to another Na'vi.

Alice hesitates for a moment. "It is beetle larvae. A delicacy to the Na'vi."

Alice hesitates for a moment. "It is beetle larvae. A delicacy to the Na'vi."

Brian pauses, "...really? Well I guess I shouldn't have asked... oh well." He continues eating.

Alice laughs. "Hah! I didn't think you would continue to eat that...I personally think it's gross that I'm eating beetle larvae; but, everybody's different."

Brian laughs, "I'm a college student, I've had worse." He starts thinking about his life back on Earth and starts getting a little homesick.

"That's very true," she chuckles. Brian's eyes dull. "Hey, are you ok?"

"Yeah, just thinking about my life before I decided to come up here," Brian says before smiling, "I gotta stop doing that."

Llanu hides behind a warbonnet plant. She watches the mesawtute talking, discussing something in a language she doesnt know.

Brian stands up and walks off to the place that he and Alice have been sleeping and lays down.

Alice stands up from her meal, and decides to explore the hometree for a little bit.
Massive Na'vi pass her by, making her feel like a small child. They would give her wary looks, then turn away and continue what they were doing.
Alice was not fit to be here.
She found a friendly group of Na'vi who were washing their hands in a bowl of water, and sat down with them. "May I, please?" she asks. They give her her own bowl, and she walks away to wash off her hair.
When she finishes, she digs around in her pocket for a notepad and pencil. She sits by the friendly group, sketching each of their faces in great detail. Alice ends up falling asleep, before finishing the final stripe on the last one's face.

Brian lightly taps Alice in her side with his foot, in an effort to wake her up.

Alice's eyes flutter slowly. "Huh? What?" She looks up, seeing Brian standing over her. "Ugh. What do you want? I was dreaming about...stuff. Like...pizza. And...butterflies...," she murmurs as she starts to drift away, back into sleep.

Brian kicks Alice in an effort to wake her up.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm awake!" she grumbles, sitting up. "What do you need, Brian?"

"Can you teach me a little bit of Na'vi?" Brian asks, knowing how big of a task this is.

Alice thinks for a moment, sitting up. "Yeah, I suppose I can." she pulls herself up to a stand. "Let me eat something first, though, ok?"

"Sure thing! Thank you" Brian says as he walks with Alice over towards the fire where food is being prepared.

Over breakfast, Alice begins to teach Brian basic Na'vi:
"Ok. Kaltxì means 'Hello'. Probably one of the most used Na'vi words, next to irayo, which means 'Thank you', or 'Give thanks'. Ngaru lu fpom srak means 'How are you?'. Another thing you will need to know," she pauses for a moment, thinking. "Oh, yes! And if you ever need help, say 'Oel kin srung si!'. It means, 'I need help!'. Got that?"

Brian repeats the words that Alice said to him murdering the pronounciation. Afterwards he asks, "Is the click in kaltxì really necessary?"

Alice laughs. "Uh, yeah. Otherwise they'll look at you like you're speaking gibberish." she smiles at Brian. "But you've got a good start. Keep working on that."

"Tha... Irayo I will." Brian smiles
